Cask, GBBF2003. Brown black, moderate beige head, low condition. Phenolic smoke aromas mingled with coffee and chocolate. More smooth chocolate in the mouth with a gentle suggestion of smoke. Finish is sweet with a hint of coffee and some smoke still lingering.

Cold on tap: Pours a dark brown color with a medium creamy light tan head. Aroma is of roasted malts, smoke and coffee. Taste is of roasted malts with earthy hops and coffee. Watery texture and smooth with ample carbonation. Ending is of roasted malts with notes of earth and cofee.

Poured a brown, dark-brown color with a tan head, very small bubbles. The lacing was decent on the way down and the aroma very mocha-like with a charcoal smokey touch. Flavor was much the same with some roasted malts showing up behind the smoke flavor. A very well done smoked beer, this was a smooth drinker, perhaps my favorite of the ABC stop.

Aroma is more grainy then smoky with some nice, bitter chocolate. Taste jumps at you right away. Full on bitterness and roasty smokiness. There’s a bit of creamy butter going on as well that’s not so appealing.
